The way I see it , the Iranian people are fighting for there lives right now. After years of saber rattling from the U.S. and Israel and the barrage of media bull shit blasted down our throats about how crazy they are it's now plain to see that the "people" of Iran obviously don't want this outcome.They no if he wins it pretty much means there going to be attacked .Curiously the silence from this administration is defying. Why isn't the world doing more to help this revolution along? Why is it so easy to promote the Idea of "war" and such a touchy balanceing act to promote the change that we all want from this country. It seems to be a perfect opportunity to topple this "Evil terrorist regime" from within. We listen to the media go on and on constantly about how evil this regime is ,but when we have the chance to change it from within - nothing . The reason, We don't want to seem to be "meddling" Why Not ? We don't seem to have a problem meddling in there energy or defense policies. We didn't have a problem meddling in Iraq when it came to "Freedom and democracy".Threatening people with war is not meddling?... give me a break. The United States should be named [The United Meddling States of America.] We have Army bases all over the world, are Navy Meddles in every sea, So What are we afraid of ? This reaction doesn't surprise me. Sadly I've come to realize that things are never what they seem. First off it seems to me that the participants protesting are comprised largely of young people akin to the hippie movement of the 60s in this country,( dare I say left wing) you saw how far that got . In my opinion the powers that be want Akmadinajad in for Geo political reasons. Maybe they want to attack Iran, I'm not sure yet. Maybe were afraid of what will replace Akmadinajad, we now what where getting with him. God forbid the Iranian youth inspire freedom and democracy across the middle east for themselves (that's are job through war, didn't you get the memo.) The bigger reason I believe is that these kind of protest scare the shit out of governments of any kind. The one thing that the ruling class backed by law is afraid of more than anything is the majority of the people standing up demanding anything for fear of it inspiring other nations to do the same, like right here in America. Governments will never support this kind of change by the people.( Are you kidding!) the people are the enemy! Goverment will do anything to make sure the rule of law prevails and that the state rules no matter how unfair these elections are. So this silence doesn't surprise me. I bet right now the CIA in some form is already on the ground" meddling" to make sure of this as we speak.
I wonder if it was the other way around and we where attacking Iran how much time and energy the media would spend trying to convince us for the reasons why we have to "meddle" in this country affairs.
Of course the situation is very fluid, I hope and pray the'll overcome.
